Shrimp and Grits

This one of my all time favorites for many reasons, It's quick, tasty, easy and filling. Always a great last minute choice when I've forgotten to take something out before leaving for the day.
I do vary the spices occasionaly adding ginger and paprika to the spice mixture.

I am a Native New Yorker with a penchant for good food and drink. Many of my favorite recipes are based on comfort foods from my childhood. Both of my parents were good cooks and shared recipes with me as I was growing up. I have developed a fondness for wines which are often a compliment to one of my meals.I love getting produce, meat, fish and wine that is local...and especially enjoy using herbs and vegetables out of my own garden during the growing season.
